What is the position where five people play basketball?

The point guard has the most chances to get the ball on the court. He wants to bring the ball safely from the backcourt to the frontcourt, and then pass it to other teammates so that others can score. A qualified point guard must be able to pass the ball across the half court without any problem when only one person is defending. Then, he must have good passing ability, and he can pass the ball where it should go most of the time: sometimes it is a gap in shooting, and sometimes it is a better guide. Simply put, he wants to make the ball smooth, and he wants to be able to pass the ball to the place where it is easiest to score. Furthermore, he should organize his own team's attack and make his teammates' attack more smooth.

There are other requirements for the point guard. In terms of scoring, the player who controls the ball is often the team's last scorer, which means that unless other teammates don't have a good chance to shoot, he won't shoot easily. Or to put it another way, his scoring ability is very strong. He uses his scoring ability to destroy the opponent's defense and create opportunities for his teammates. In short, there is an unchangeable principle for the point player: if any teammate has a better chance to play on the spot than him, he will definitely give the ball to the teammate with a better chance.

Generally speaking, the point guard is the initiator of organizational attack.

But the position with the point guard partner is hard to say.

Like the stars with outstanding personal ability in the NBA, they are basically the organizers and terminators of the attack.

But when we play basketball in reality, it is generally best for point guards to partner with inside players.

Pour the ball in and pass it to the open player through the inside power forward or center.

End the attack

No.2 shooting guard

Shooting guard, from its meaning, we can easily know that his main task on the court is to score points. He is the second leading scorer in the field after the small forward, but he doesn't need to practice singles skills like the small forward because his teammates often help him find a gap and shoot. However, because of this, his outside accuracy and stability should be very good.

Shooting guards often have to do two things. First of all, there must be a good gap to throw an outside line, so his outside line must be accurate and stable. Otherwise, if his teammates tried their best to block a good opportunity but didn't make a move, it would be a great blow to the morale and confidence of the whole team. The second is to find a small gap to throw an outside line, so he has to be quick. A good shooting guard can't expect such a good gap every time. He should be able to find shooting opportunities in a short time, and his shooting percentage should be at a certain level. This can stall the enemy's defense, and the defensive circle must be opened, which is more conducive to teammates' attack in the restricted area.

In that case, the shooting percentage of the shooting guard must be high, right? Actually, it is not. Because although we hope he has a good aim, we should not forget that his shots are often quite far. We can't expect a shooter to shoot from the outside more accurately than others at the basket! What's more, the shooting guard sometimes has to find a chance to shoot alone or find a gap in the gap, so his shooting rate will not be too high, which is understandable. Generally speaking, it is good to reach 47% or 48%, and more than 50% is the best choice.

Then look at several representative shooting guards! Jeff Hornacek can be regarded as a typical shooting guard. His outside shot is fast and steady, the range can be near or far, and he can shoot from all angles, and his shooting percentage has been at a certain level. In addition, he also has the ability to cut in. When necessary, he cuts in and passes the ball to destroy the defense. All the necessary abilities are ready. The other can be represented by Latrell Sprewell, who actually cuts in more destructive power than projects from the outside. As for Hornacek, he also has the above skills, but in proportion, he is more focused on breakthrough. In an ordinary outside gap, Hornacek may choose an outside shot with confidence, while Sprewell may prefer to cut into the restricted area and choose a shooting opportunity closer to the basket, which is the difference between them in their offensive choice. To put it bluntly, Sprewell's play is already a small forward shooting guard. Looking at today's NBA shooting guards, such as reggie miller, Du Masi, Mitch Richmond, Anderson and others, it is not difficult to find that their differences are not big, and almost all of them play the same way. This shows that the characteristics of shooting guards are quite obvious, unlike other positions, which often have different types of play.

Looking at CBA, Hu Weidong of Jiangsu is undoubtedly an excellent shooting guard, especially good at three-point long shots. Last season, he made an amazing record of single game 12 three-pointers.

To select the best shooting guard in NBA history, I think the only position that won't cause controversy is Michael Jordan. In the early stage of Jordan's NBA career, it can be said that it is very close to the small forward's style of play, and he can often score points at the basket, but in the later stage, he developed the top outside ability, which made his offensive point more impeccable. Even he can sometimes serve as a point guard assistant, and sometimes he can serve as a striker to catch rebounds, which is unparalleled in comprehensiveness. He has the aim and range that a shooting guard should have, as well as the singles ability of a small forward, and his shooting percentage can remain high. Coupled with his agility, he has excellent defensive skills. The most important thing is his impressive momentum and leadership temperament, which can't be achieved by any acquired training.

Three-position small forward

Small forward is the team's most important scorer. The so-called small forward, the most fundamental requirement is to score, and it is a long-distance score. As soon as the small forward receives the ball, his first thought is how to put the ball into the basket. He may rebound, but it is not necessary; He may pass the ball well, but it is not necessary; He may be flexible, but it is still unnecessary; He may defend well, but it's still unnecessary. The basic job of a small forward is to score, score and score again.

That little forward just wants to score. Does it matter that the lower the shooting percentage, the better? Of course not! However, the small forward is the position with the lowest requirement for shooting percentage. Generally speaking, as long as 45% is qualified, more than 40% is acceptable. Of course, there is a premise that he can score. If a small forward averages seven or eight points and only plays 40%, it is better to put him on the bench. On the other hand, why can the shooting percentage of small forwards be lower? Because he is the main scorer of the team, he often takes the initiative to look for shooting opportunities, stabilize his morale at some times, and even improve his opponent by singling out his opponent in a more difficult way. At some times, he takes the initiative to look for shooting opportunities, stabilize his morale, and even boost his morale by singling out his opponent in a more difficult way, even giving him a shock and a head-on blow. So the small forward will have more chances to shoot, or it may be a bad chance, so he can be allowed to play lower, as long as he can score.

For example, dominique wilkins, a veteran of Boston, played for the Eagles and Clippers. Now he is a good small forward. He has a strong singles ability and a strong desire to score, which makes him a candidate for the scoring champion in the mid-1980s. However, his hit rate does not exceed 50% a year, mostly around 47%. In addition, most people often only see his wonderful dunk, but his outside ability is also first-class! He can score points and boost morale. He is a real small forward. Then I want to mention Chuck Person, who played in Indiana and Minnesota and now plays for the Spurs. Although he doesn't average about 30 points per game like Wilkins, he has a strong desire to score. In addition, he has almost no ability to play inside, but the scope of outside is very wide. I believe everyone should be impressed by his dancing after throwing a few super three-pointers! Therefore, Person is also a small forward who can shoot on the outside and in difficult situations, and is another typical example different from Wilkins.

Of course, there are many excellent small forwards in NBA, such as Julius Erving and scottie pippen, so I won't list them here. The best attribution of CBA small forward is naturally Sun Jun of Jilin team. His contribution of nearly 32 points per game is enough to make him the main candidate for MVP in 2006-07.

The best small forward in the league is larry bird. First of all, his ability in scoring and perimeter should be beyond doubt, even top-notch. And his rebounds are about ten per game, and his assists are even more amazing. Not only that, he also has many scenes of winning or losing with one goal, stabilizing the morale of the army at a critical moment, fighting against the main commander of his opponent, and even unforgettable thieves of the century. Bird showed excellent skills in all aspects. He is undoubtedly the best small forward. If you want to find fault with him, I'm afraid you can only say that he is not flexible enough!

Power forward is in position four.

abstract

The task of power forward in the team is almost always very hard. Rebound, defense and blocking are all indispensable to him, but he is often the last to score. So power forward can be regarded as the most inconspicuous role on the basketball court.

accountability

The first job is to rebound. Power forward is usually the person who rebounds the most on the team. He is stuck in the penalty area, cooperates with the center and often provokes the rebounding task of the whole team. When attacking, he often helps his teammates block people, and then tries to squeeze in and grab offensive rebounds after his teammates make the second wave of attack. Usually only a few hours, the power forward will be asked to sink to the bottom of the singles. At this time, he will turn over and shoot a small hook near the restricted area and do some close-range attacks.

Because power forwards usually shoot fewer times and their shooting positions are often close to the basket, their shooting percentage is naturally higher. For the five positions in the team, the power forward should be the one with the highest hit rate, and a good power forward should reach more than 55%. But because scoring is not his strong point, he can score few points, but he must grab more rebounds. In addition, Hotpot's defensive ability is naturally necessary for power forward, because he wants to consolidate the restricted area, and defense is of course important. In any case, power forwards should do two things well-rebounding and defense.

Representative figure

Among the active players, Horace Grant is a typical power forward. He has a good grasp of rebounding and is well-behaved in defense, but he is not greedy in attack. He often scores by grabbing offensive rebounds or simple singles, and his hit rate is high. When necessary, he can swim outside the restricted area and hit the distance in the gap, which not only strengthens the overall defensive strength of the team, but also makes the enemy unable to ignore his scoring potential. Besides, karl malone is another type of power forward. He takes his strong body as the capital of singles in the restricted area, and in turn takes offense as his main job. Defensively, he does the same defense and rebounding as power forward, but offensively, he still often scores alone and even practices on the outside, becoming a very threatening attacker. In fact, in addition to the duties of power forward, practicing the offensive ability of small forward will become an offensive power forward.

Because what power forwards do is so unremarkable, there are not many famous power forwards in NBA history. For example, kevin mchale. Mchale is not particularly good at rebounding, but because of his long arms, he has an innate advantage in defense and is quite outstanding. But what impressed him most was his offensive ability. His attack is different from the general attack in the restricted area. He eats people not by figure, elasticity and explosiveness, but by footwork. He can make many strides from side to side after dribbling stops, and find the best time to make a small hook or pick a basket, and he is very steady, often scoring goals and then causing fouls. His singles are typical, and you never know where he will throw. However, because of his high score, the hit rate can often be kept above 60%, which shows its value. Perhaps, he can be called the most beautiful person in the forbidden area singles in NBA history.

The most talented power forward in CBA is Gong. In addition, Liu Yudong of Bayi Team is also quite excellent, not only the second scorer in the team, but also has his own uniqueness in defense.

comment

In the past, power forwards often had to practice hard and had little chance to catch the ball and play singles on the court. But now the concept of basketball is changing with each passing day, and the power forward is gradually strengthening in attack, which is the biggest difference between the past and the present. However, a good power forward should focus on the efforts in the penalty area. A player who can rebound and defend but has poor offensive ability will be called a good power forward, but a player who can score well but fails in rebounding and defending is not a power forward at all.

The fifth center

Basketball terminology-center

I. Overview

Center (c)

Center, as its name implies, is the core of a team. A position on the basketball team; Usually the tallest player on the team. Traditionally, it emphasizes the protection of the basket defense and defensive rebounds. Some center players with offensive talent often become the main point of shooting near the restricted area because of their height advantage.

In football, the center is responsible for passing the ball between the frontcourt and the backcourt, which plays a certain defensive role.

Although there is no fixed "height standard" for the center, the height of the center in the men's basketball team is generally above 2m 08(6 feet 10 inch), and the height of the center in the women's basketball team is generally above 1m 90(6 feet 3 inches). In technical statistics, the center can usually contribute the most blocked shots and often achieve high shooting percentage and rebounding performance.

Because the number of basketball players who can reach more than 2m 13 (7ft) and still maintain good athletic ability is limited, a few centers with both height and flexibility can often become an important factor in winning or losing the game. Take NBA as an example, a center with athletic talent, spirit, skill and good physique is often the key to a strong team.

Second, responsibility.

First of all, he is active in the restricted area, and rebounding is absolutely indispensable. Again, the restricted area is a battleground for all teams. Of course, opponents can't attack it easily, so the ability to block attacks and build hot pot is also indispensable. When attacking, the center often has the opportunity to stand in the penalty area near the free throw line (which is the center of the whole attack field) to catch the ball. At this time, he should also have good ball guiding ability and send the ball to a more suitable corner. The above three items are the basic skills that a center should have. In the team, the center is often responsible for scoring. He is the main inside scorer, corresponding to the inside and outside small forward. Because he wants to play singles, his shooting percentage can be lower, but his hand is often closer to the basket, so his shooting percentage is higher. Generally speaking, 52% can be used as a standard. The requirement of center's hit rate is second only to that of power forward.

Third, the technical requirements

A good center needs versatility. In attack, the center should have the ability to play singles near the basket, and he should be able to play singles with his back to the basket. Turning shot is the most common one, while jumping and hooking are more difficult to defend. Defensively, to be a good center, you should not only defend the players you should watch, but also help your teammates defend in time. To put it simply, if an enemy player bypasses his teammates' defense and enters the basket, the center should have the courage to make peace, while one person guards and defends his own restricted area. Of course, it doesn't mean that you can't leak it every time, but you always have the ability to "help". If a center can only hold his own people, it is not enough (unless the opponent is a super offensive center).

There is a deformation of the center, which is called the outer center. The difference between him and the normal center is that his attack is mainly to shoot outside shots, and less to do singles in the restricted area. Because the center is tall, other short people can't keep it at all, so outside shooting can pull out the opposing center, so it is also very useful when the striker is strong. When defending, just like the average center, defend the opposing center and rebound as usual. Okur of the Jazz is an example.

Fourth, the representative figures

Many top teams in history are based on the top center players in the league, such as the Boston Celtics, which owned bill russell in 1960s, and the Los Angeles Lakers, which owned Karim Abdel-Jabbar in 1960s. Today, shaquille o'neal of Miami Heat is also famous for his huge body (2 meters 16, 7 feet, 1 inch; Weighing more than 300 kilograms) and making good use of physical advantage skills, it poses a great threat to opponents in the restricted area, thus leading three different teams to the NBA finals.

In today's international basketball and professional leagues, center and power forward are often played by players with similar conditions or given similar tasks, which is difficult to distinguish clearly.
